I have a ATI 6990.

Latest AMD beta drivers.

Both Catalyst and windows only let me set 60, 85 or 100hz as display options.

Any idea how to fix?


Also, pressing the turbo button has no effect, regardless of how many times. It just says the current frame rate- it wont cycle.

swift is made for nvidia cards.

Its not "for nvidia" - some features are, yes.

But a Asus rep said point blank that 144hz will work for all users, not just nvidia users.

So with that, can a Asus rep please comment on why I cannot obtain past 100hz?

Thanks

AMD has had some wide spread issues running the monitor past 120 Hz. Some cards can't get higher than 85. Similar users report having that problem but switching to Nvidia let them get to 144 Hz just fine. I think it may be a driver limitation on AMD's side for the time being, although technically the monitor *does* work for AMD..

Ive tried everything, including just running the monitor by itself and changing the cable to a brand new one.

Still, no 120 or 144hz options appear. The only hope I have is that Catalyst says it reports it /can/ do 144hz.

Still no way to set it past 100hz in catalyst nor windows desktop.

Also, turbo button has still never worked.
